This board should install the tapatalk plug-in. I know Android has a tapatalk app, and I think the iPhone has a tapatalk app, as well.

its 3 bucks to download now though. It is free for the forum and easy to set up though.
I have the free version on my android phone but just have to remember not to update it, lol. I think the free version is all read only.

Although, individual boards can release their own version of the tapatalk app, and it's free (I know that's the case on Android. Not sure if the iPhone app is the same way). XDA Developers does this. You have full access to read/post/etc. Not sure if XDA has to pay anything additional to tapatalk. I hope that Chris and Jason at least look into this as a possibility. I'd download the CZ28 app.

I'd rather see them make a mobile version of the site for all mobile users instead of an app catering to a smaller segment.

I wasn't talking about non smart phone users. Off the bat, the varieties of smart phones I can think of include Win Mobile, Blackberry, Android, iPhone, and WebOS. Why make five apps when you can make a single mobile version that works in the browsers for ALL those phones?

The Tapatalk app is out for a lot of phones. Its nicer then just a mobile version of the board too. Try it out and see, lots of Tapatalk boards to try it with.

i am a iphone user so i would love to see that, i will admit safari and bookmark is nowhere near a win

but i think a mobile version would be easier and more people would be able to use it even though it would not be so nice as a app

i am going to look into this tapatalk thing now though, in theory it sounds like a good idea
